The steamer Fashion leaves this morning. Burglary. During some portion of Friday night the store j of Lallbbstedt A Deming, situated on the comer of Broad and .Jackson streets, was broken into, and j goods stolen to the amount of SSOO, consisting of ' light colored silk robes, striped and plain chene silks and solid colored silks, fine bareges, and tine linen drill*. The burglars also carried oft'a brown paint ed tin box, having the name of “L. C. Deming" painted on it, which contained about $lO3 in mo ney, and a number of valuable private papers. The store was entered from Jackson street, by prizing m a chisel betweeu the double doors, and forcing oflf the iron catch which held the bolt of. the lock. This robbery was committed in one of the most public places in the city, and it seems strange how it was done without detection, when there must have been some considerable noise made in effect mg au entrance into the store. Parodi’s Farewell Concert. This attraction drew a large and fashionable bouse on Friday night at Concert Hall. M’Ue. Pa rodi, Madame Htrakosch, Mr. Strakosch, and Signor Leonardi, more than confirmed the delight ful impressions they made on Wednesday. The ladies were encored and applauded with great fer vor, and dTRAKOSCH came in for a large share of the enthusiasm which pervaded the audience. We were gratified to witness the considerate and decorous deportment of the entire house during an awkward incident of the evening. While Pa~ rodi and Mad. Strakosch were singing the conclud ing piece, “ I’he Star Spangled Banner,’’ the gas suddenly gave out, leaving the fair vocalists and the stage almost in utter darkness. No one avail ed himself of the safe opportunity to create anv disturbance, but all listened with silent attention to the close. The song was encored, as it well de served to be, but in so respectful and decorous a manner, that the ladies amiably complied, and sang two more stanzas with thrilling effect, in the dim light of a candle held from the side scenes It would seem trivial to notice such good con duct in an Augusta audience, as that ought to be a matter of course. But as we have more than once on similar occasions noticed in our city instances of rudeness, if not rowdyism, by a few, found in ull communities, unable to appreciate the proprie ties due such an occasion, it gives us great pleasure to compliment the handsome manner in which the affair passed oiT. Oglethorpe Infantry. This tine corps paraded yesterday afternoon, Lt. J K. Jackson commanding, and made a heautitu! appearance. The Richmond Hussars. t his new cavalry corps made their first appear ance in our streets yesterday afternoon, in citizens’ dress, under the command of Dr. Wm. E. Dear iso. They performed sundty evolutions in a style which given promise of a well-drilled and efficient company. We wish success and prosperity to the Uichmond Hussars As it may be an inducement to many to join, we state that the members are ex empt bv law from jury duty. No arm of the vol unteer service is more valuable to a city than cavalry. The Company meet on Saturday evening next to elect officers. [u the Christian calender, to-day is Palm Sunday; next week is Passion er Holy week ; next Friday is Good Friday and the following Sunday is Easter. Mr. Wm. H. Crisp, we at e pleased to learn, fi ts taken a lease of the Variety Theatre, New Or leans. We hope now some enterprising manager, who can obtain an efficient company, will see to an early engagement of our Georgia Theatres. The Rev. J.utvts Buxton, at Asheville, X. t\, is determined to disregard the laws passed by the authorities of that town, to prevent the spread of the small pox. The parson says he will call the people together, and preach the Gospel, and pray that the small pox shall cease, and does not care for the godless and mere human laws of the people of Asheville. The line of the Columbia and ( harlottee Tele graph, we are informed, i- in a forward state of repair, and those having it in charge hope to have it in operation front Columbia as far as Chester be fore Court week.

Thf: Baltic. —This steamship is now on the dry dock at New York, and an inspection of her cop per furnished the best evidence of her extraordi nary strength. She has crossed the Atlantic ocean eighty times, running a distance of two hun dred and fifty thousand miles, and yet when taken into her dock, her copper was found to be without a wrinkle. A Veteran Shir.—The fine old ship William Fane, which nearlva hundred years ago bore Gen. Wolf to the conquest of Quebec, is now lying in tbe dry-docks at Newport, England, to undergo a few slight repairs. The Washington Star says the President has directed that the functions of the Governor of Min nesota, as ex-ojfido Superintendent of Indian Af fair* in that Territory, shall cease, and that the In dian matters of the Territory shall hereafter be under the control of Superintendent Francis Hcelschman, whose office is hereafter to be at St. Paul’s Lear Year. —A petition has been presented to the New York Legislature, asking that u law by passed making every alternate year a “ leap year .” The petition sets forth that for the past few weeks of tbe new year, more marriages have taken place, and much more courting been going forward ; and they believe that ieap year is a needful and beneficial institution, calculated to do much for "wo-man's rights.” fit' the six hundred and six convicts in the Ohio Penitentiary, there are Second convictions, fit ty-eight; third, nine; fourth, three- fifth, one. four hundred and twenty-three are intemperate ■ sixty-one are married ; fifty are blacks or mulat - toes; twenty-six are over fifty years of age ; two hundred and forty-four cannot read or write and four hundred, or nearly sixty-six per rent, of the whole number, have no trades! F A Naval Purser Confirmed. —The Senate, we hear, on Tuesday last confirmed the nomination ot John B.

Lear Sir: Having just returned from Elberton, where I had attended the Superior Court for that county the three first days of its sitting, I sup posed that a line or two from that portion of the State might be somewhat interesting. Judge Thomas, of Hancock, presiding for the first time since bis election, many were anxious to see his business capacity tested. The Judge soon con vinced them that he not only understood how to dispatch business, but his profound legal know ledge, united with his usual urbanity of manners, gave the utmost satisfaction. I heard Messrs. Toombs, T. W. Thomas and T- R. Cobb one even ing in Chambers plead with great ability on a will case, where the technicalities of the law were fully discussed, and the legal knowledge of the parties went back for two hundred years. I had supposed that Mr. Toombs, front his long devotion to public life, had become rusty in the law. In this 1 was agreeably disappointed. He is a man of remark able memory, and as powerful in the law as he is ,n polities. An unfortunate affair occurred while I was on he Court ground—that of a drunken man stabbing i lad of some sixteen years of age, without provo cation. The man was committed to jail; the lad was improving when 1 left. The stab was with rhe small blade of a pen-knife. It entered the tower region of the stomach. It will be some da vs vet before be can be considered out of danger, lie is the son of the widow who keeps the Hotel. Thursday morning I left, it being a rainv, cold lay. i suffered from cold while on the road, and •n arriving at Lexington depot the next morning, L discovered a thin sheet of ice. The trees were not in bloom, and, from the backwardness of the season, I hope we will have a tine fruit vear. The wheat crop is very little injured. I noticed the hills and dales beginning to look green, as I pass ed along the road. The farmers iu this as well as other sections of the State, are much troubled to procure seed sweet potatoes, they having nearly all rotted. On reaching Union Point 1 learned that the Court at Lnwreneeville, Gwinnett county, that was to have been held this week, was postponed to the first Monday in June next, inconsequence of the prevalence of the small pox in the adjoining counties. In going and returning from Augusta to am point on the Athens railroad, you have to pass through a kind of purgatory, on account of a delay of four hours each way. This, however, is, in a great measure, softened down, by the anticipation of a good dinner, and which is fully realized by all who partake of the table spread out by the enter prising proprietors, and particularly "Mr. Edwin Platt, who gives the house his personal attention. IB- is a thorough go ahead landlord. I would ad vise all who stop here to give the Union Point din ner house a trial, as 1 think they will get their money's worth, even those of the most epicurean appetites. Besides, the manners of Mr. Platt are polite and pleasing. Success attend them. C. An Up Ilill Bnsiiic ss. The American press will have a heavy loud to carry, in supporting Donelson for the Vice Presi dency. In fact, the Major, while editor of the Washington I,'n.ion, has furnished the opposition with any amount of “grape and canister” against Mr. Fillmore. The columns of that paper teemed with abuse of the ex-Prosident, charging upon him the sin of Abolitionism, and holding the opinions that the institution of slavery was a curse, and should not he extended into new territories. How all this can he explained without stultification of the Vice Presidential nominee, is not so easy to perceive. We do not mean to assist in any such bootless labor. But grievous as is that transgression, there is vet another still more offensive. Major Donelson, while editor as aforesaid, pandered to thp until American sentiment of the country, and favored foreign immigration. Here is an extract from one of his editorials, onlv a few years since. “1 m migration.— I The Republic of Wednesday, contains a long article on immigration to the Uni ted States. It portrays in vivid colors the rapid and unparalleled increase in the number of those who are seeking our shores. The Irish emigration is so great that tbe court journal classes it among the phenomena of history. We i Andrew Jackson Donelson j are glad to see this emigration from the Old World. It brings to us the physical force we need to fell the forest and to build our improve ments. We have yet, and will have for many long years, scope and range enough for their industv and enterprise. But it was not our intention to discuss this branch of the subject at the present time. Tiie native party is now prostrate, and it will be time enough to commence the discussion when another attempt is made by the federalists to revive the principles of the alien laws.” V ital say you, Americans of Georgia, to such an exhibition of the political opinions of the can didate foisted upon you, by the late Philadelphia Convention, for the Vice Presidency? Can you consistently support a man who has" thus reviled your principles? We trust not. We hope that the American party of Georgia will act for them selves, in this matter. If Mr. Fillmore be the choice of a majority, so be it. We will yield our preference so tar as he is concerned, but “in the name of all the gods, at once,” do not place that “greasy Tennesseean” asßrownlow calls him, on the same ticket. Give us Crittenden; Clemons, Stockton. Hilliard, Walker, Pike, Dawson, or any other good man, tor Vice President, and we may I have some heart for co-operating in the canvass approaching, with our friends and for our princi ples, but not otherwise. —Georgia < tizen The New Bridge. This handsome structure, spanning the Ashley river, at the foot of Spring street, which has been in course of erection for the last eighteen months, was completed vesterdtiv, and will be open to-day as a public highway. In August, 1845, the Com pany advertised for contracts, and the proposals of Mr. J. D Petsch, as architect and builder, were accepted. The work was commenced on the 6th of September, but was immediately interrupted by the gale which commenced on the following day, after which the work was again commenced, and was again interrupted by the prevalence of the yellow fever; and since that time the work has been often impeded by the want of timbers. The Bridge is two thousand three hundred and fifty-five feet in length, and thirtv-five feet in breadth, and is divided into four tracks ; two for foot passengers, and two for horses and carriages. It is supported by pile 6, which are driven into the bed of the river an average distance of twenty right feet, and is further sustained by strong iron rods. The emire cost will reach SIIO,OOO, and the number of workmen constantly employed was an average of sixty. Ihe )vork, as it stands, is a monument to the skill, industry and perseverance of the architect and builder ; and, in! nil probilitv, will stand the storms of ages. The highest tide in the gale of 1854 did not reach the height of the flooring of this bridge by four feet, and a severer one is scarce ly within the range of ordinary events. The first ! bridge that was built on the present site, was de stroyed by a storm in 1813 : the piles of which were driven only six feet, while those of the pre sent one are driven twenty-eight feet. We eon | template, in a future issue, to give a fuller account of this noble structure.

Ladies ami Gentlemen:—VVe would call your attention to the advertisement of Prof. 0. J. WOOD’S HAIR RESTORATIVE, which ap pears in the columns of our present number. From our long acquaintance with the proprietor, and with numerous individuals who have used his preparation with perfect success for the last two years, we feel no hesitation in recommending the article as superior to any of the preparations now in use tor the same purpose, viz: for restoring gray hair to itu original color, a sure and perfect cure lor baldness, and a never-failing preventive for tin falling of the hair. It is decidedly the best and most popular in use for beautifying, preserving, restoring and strength ening the hair, relieving diseases of the skin, and removing seurit, dandruff and all eruptions and fe verish heat from the scalp. We speak in relation to the above from what we know, having been personally acquainted with nu merous persons who have used the Restorative for j the above purposes with iho most gratifying re suits. It is not often we notice a patent medicine. In deed, we think we have never puffed one before ; but Prot. \\ ood’s Hair Restorative is something so superior to most of the preparations of the day. that we cannot forbear asking the attention of oui readers to it. - Catholic Vindicator.
